Chapter 238 Bath Me Please (1/2)
She was moved by him—he saved her earlier from the boiling soup, hence, she was agreeable with the arrangement.
The two of them hailed a cab and arrived at the shopping mall. They held hands and walked inside it.
Bai Muchuan bought an entire set of clothing for Xiang Wan to change. He even bought a sleeping gown and some daily necessities.
Xiang Wan had to admit that shopping with her boyfriend and watching him pay with his credit card was a delightful sight to watch.
Watching Bai Muchuan carry the shopping bags after footing the bill, Xiang Wan's heart was filled with sweetness.
”Boss, thank you for supporting me.”
Bai Muchuan laughed. ”Someone has a sweet mouth today?”
Xiang Wan giggled, clinging onto him as they walked out of the store when she thought of something. ”You don't need pajamas?”
Bai Muchuan: ”I don't need it.”
”Eh? Why?” Xiang Wan blinked as she was puzzled.
Bai Muchuan lowered his head and revealed an evil grin. ”I sleep naked.”
Xiang Wan dropped her jaw. ”…”
Bai Muchuan was someone who knew how to enjoy life.
If it was within his means, he would always want the best.
When they got out of the mall, he told the cab driver to bring them to the best hotel in Xi City.
However, this guy, who spent money without raising an eyebrow, actually used 'saving money' as a reason to book only one hotel room.
Xiang Wan's face was blushing with shyness—even her eyes were red when she heard that and she secretly tugged his sleeves.
”Bai Muchuan.”
”Hm?”
”I don't want.”
Bai Muchuan took a look at her and turned to the hotel receptionist. ”Could you please speed this up? My girlfriend is feeling uncomfortable and needs a rest.”
”…”
Why did he have to make it sound as though she was the one in a hurry?
Xiang Wan's face got redder even more after hearing from that.
The female receptionist took a glance at Xiang Wan without any change of expression. She was used to such situations and did not raise any suspicion about their relationship.
”Sure,” smiled the receptionist, ”miss, I need your ID card please.”
Bai Muchuan took a look at Xiang Wan. ”ID card.”
Xiang Wan got even more nervous.
But Bai Muchuan was acting like there was nothing wrong with the arrangement, and she didn't want to make Bai Muchuan look bad in front of others.
Hence unwillingly, she kept quiet, lowered her head to take out her ID card, and handed it over.
”Thank you!”
Bai Muchuan was holding the door card in his hands when both of them entered the elevator. As Xiang Wan had been quiet all this while, Bai Muchuan put his arm around her shoulders and puffed a sigh.
”What is it?”
”Nothing.”
”Then be happier?”
”…”
”Aye! You're making me look like a bandit who has just kidnapped a girl…”
Pffft! Xiang Wan was amused by his words.
”We can actually look for a cheaper hotel,” she said softly as she looked up, ”and we don't have to spend so much.”
Bai Muchuan replied seriously, ”I have trouble sleeping in a cheaper hotel.”
Xiang Wan rolled her eyes. ”But you are able to sleep on the sofa in my bedroom?”
Bai Muchuan snickered. ”That's because you're there.”
”…”
She had to hand it to him.
He could easily flip black from white.
Xiang Wan couldn't retaliate at all. She was left dumbfounded.
If he could only fell asleep when she was with him, guess she just had to let him be.
What to do? He was the devil she chose, no matter what happened, she should dote on him too.
Pffft! Xiang Wan couldn't help sneaking a laugh when she thought of that.
”What are you laughing at?” Bai Muchuan gave her a sidelong glance.
”Who else but you?” Xiang Wan snorted and looked at the ceiling of the elevator.
”Hur! You better be…” grunted Bai Muchuan who revealed a meaningful smile and squeezed her on the shoulder. Ding! He stepped out of the elevator first the moment the door opened.
Xiang Wan looked up and was only able to catch a short glimpse of a somewhat evil grin on Bai Muchuan's face.
”What's up with you?!”
Bai Muchuan pretended he didn't hear her giggles.
The corridor of the hotel was covered with a thick layer of carpet. Xiang Wan didn't pay attention to the color of the carpet. She only knew when she stepped on it, she felt light and her heart was drumming extremely fast as she walked along the corridor.
Was this considered getting a room with him?
Probably due to nervousness, she could feel her palm getting clammy.
Bai Muchuan, on the other hand, looked relaxed as he walked to their room with their bags still in his hands. He swiped the room card and pulled Xiang Wan into the room.
Thud! The door closed.
Xiang Wan's back was against the door, biting her lip as she looked at his face which was suddenly drawing close to her—at this moment, her heart was racing.
”Bai Muchuan…”
”Hm!”
”You…”
She didn't know what to say.
She felt uneasy and awkward, and she could only produce a polite smile.
Bai Muchuan paused for a while when he saw her response and patted Xiang Wan on the head as he laughed. He did not come at her like a hungry wolf. Instead, he turned and walked into the room.
